Wwise Help

Information about the elements played in-game is displayed in the graph. While the elements could be essentially any variety of Wwise object, they are displayed from left to right in order of their relationship starting with game objects, moving through possible Events and their targets (such as containers, States, and Switches), to sound and music objects, and finally the bus structure output.

	Tip
	You can click any element in the graph to open it in the Property Editor.

	Note
	Non-mixing busses are not displayed in the graph view. Refer to Understanding the bus icons and processing status for more information on the various processing statuses.

	Note
	For the optimized bus hierarchy of motion objects to appear in the Voices tab, you need the appropriate motion device drivers installed on your workstation.

The relationship between each element within the structure is displayed with lines, along with information about the element. For example, hovering over or clicking on an object highlights its entire path: parent objects, child objects, and connection lines. A dotted line connects an audio structure to an Auxiliary Bus. A red dotted line indicates latency. Next to the volume output, the amount of latency appears in ms.

This happens when an Auxiliary Send goes to an Auxiliary Bus that is already mixing in the current audio frame. Wwise must wait for the next audio frame to include the send in the mix. To avoid this possibility, do not direct Auxiliary Sends to Auxiliary Busses lower in the hierarchy.

	The large light grey box (BP_WaterGush_01_Spigot4_3...) represents the Game Object that is associated with the Event (Fountain_Splash_02) and Sound SFX (Fountain Splash 02).
	The blue boxes represent the Event (Fountain_Splash_02) and the Sound SFX (Fountain Splash 02) objects. Numbers and icons indicate the relative volume level in decibels, low-pass filter (0-100), and high pass filter (0-100).
	The large light grey box represents the Listener Game Object (PlayerCameraManager_2147...) that is associated with the Busses and their applied effects. Numbers and icons indicate the relative volume level in decibels.
	The yellow box (AK Convolution Reverb) beneath the Bus (AkReverbZone_4) represents the Effect applied on the Bus. Numbers and icons indicate the relative volume level in decibels.
	Click the small grey circle to view the volume and amount of latency in milliseconds applied to this connection.

The data in the Voices Graph tab is collected only once per capture period. You can, however, use the time cursor to navigate through the Performance/Voice Monitor to display data at different time periods.

Tip

Everywhere game objects are listed, such as in the Capture Log or the Voices and Voices Graph tabs of the Advanced Profiler, there is a specific shortcut menu with the following options: Mute Game Object: Mutes all objects under this game object. Unmute Game Object: Removes the mute on all objects under this game object. Solo Game Object: Implicitly mutes all objects under other game objects. Unsolo Game Object: Removes the implicit mute from all objects under other game objects. Search Game Object in Voice Graph: Opens the Voices Graph tab of the Advanced Profiler with its Filter set to the specified game object.
